In an oil spill response system, oil on the water surface is collected into an oil combating vessel having at its side an inlet at the water level and a water flow conduit extending from the inlet, the flow conduit having an oil separating unit separating the oil present on the surface, and the flow conduit leading to a return conduit provided with an outlet. The oil separating unit includes a first separator installed in the flow conduit in the flow direction of water and formed by a brush cassette constituting a separating surface obliquely rising from the water in the flow direction of water, and following the brush cassette a framework module disposed in the flow conduit, to which framework module the brush cassette is supported. The framework module has a second separator with a rotating drum brush, and water outlets directing the cleaned water to the return conduit.
